Sysname
monomethylamine:5-hydroxybenzimidazolylcobamide Co-methyltransferase
Reaction(IUBMB)
methylamine + a [Co(I) methylamine-specific corrinoid protein] = a [methyl-Co(III) methylamine-specific corrinoid protein] + NH3 [RN:
R10014 ]
Reaction(KEGG)
Substrate
methylamine [CPD:
C00218 ];
[Co(I) methylamine-specific corrinoid protein]
Product
[methyl-Co(III) methylamine-specific corrinoid protein];
NH3 [CPD:
C00014 ]
Comment
The enzyme, which catalyses the transfer of a methyl group from methylamine to a methylamine-specific corrinoid protein (MtmC), is involved in methanogenesis from methylamine. The enzyme contains the unusual amino acid pyrrolysine [3]. Methylation of the corrinoid protein requires the central cobalt to be in the Co(I) state. During methylation the cobalt is oxidized to the Co(III) state. The methylated corrinoid protein is substrate for EC
2.1.1.247 , methylated methylamine-specific corrinoid protein:coenzyme M methyltransferase.
